So as your reading this, I am in Canada Whistler.. skiing or sleeping dependant on your time zone! Im probably sore, aching and having the time of my life! Its actually the 2nd of January as I type this and I am a tad excited about our impending trip!

Now this week at Aud Sentiments we were asked to use Mama Doodle images and our theme is very simple, use the word LOVE. I am not sure if i will be able to comment much while away but Im going to try my best, the rest of the DT is on hand to be wowed by your brilliance though so head on over to the Challenge blog and link up your creations

We were lucky enough to be sponsored by Sassy Designs and yes they are definitely sassy images, I love them. I now have four of these beauties in my digital image stash and look forward to grabbing some more in the future, the range of images is wonderful and is very hard to choose.

I created this card last night with a totally different background on it and I really didnt like it. I woke up today and thought.. ok its not the image, its the papers I am using and wouldn't you know it.. a change of papers made the card change.

We look forward to seeing you over on the Shoe challenge blog. And please head on over to Sassy Designs to chek out the store.

Its been a while since a made a card just for the sake of it but I saw this inspiration challenge this morning and decided I must play. Head in over to Cupcake inspiration to see the details. I'm also playing lag with my DT challenges, so Aud Sentiments wanted scraps, the image was in a pile of scraps, I'd half coloured her and then forgot about her, and the little green glitter swirls were nearly in the bin and I rescued them. Card makin mamas want something new, I went with technique and coloured ribbons with copic airbrushing, but to be fair the rhinestones are also new to my stash and then there is If the shoe fits, alSo scraps. All the links for these challenges are on my sidebar. Oh there is also Make it monday where they have their pinky party of anything goes.

Its an exciting new year ahead at the Card Makin Mama's Challenge blog and we are starting the new year with the theme of "use something new" on your cards. Well what better chance for me to introduce my newest addtition.. a Blackcat Foilmaster. Its the baby sister to Monster my cutting machine, and cousin to the Gazelle that I own. My project was foiled on the sentiment and the little love hearts above the image, the photo doesnt do the foiling justice. I am sure there are loads of uses for the foil but I have to find them and use them to their full advantage! My image was purchased last year and yet to be used.. so we can consider that new too.. as was the unopened 6 by 6 inch designer paper!~

We are really looking forward to seeing what you create for this challenge, so jump on in and wow us! Pop on over to the challenge blog and check out whats up for grabs and link up your projects.

I would also like to link up with Make it Monday where it's always anything goes and Creatilicious who are having a colour challenge of purple, pink, blue and white

Happy New Year to you all and thanks for popping in.
This week at Aud Sentiments we are happily sponsored by Floppy Latte Designs.. and how cute is this image. We were asked to use scraps and any sentiment, this was perfect timing for me as my daughter sorted out my box of scraps and colour coded them... how awesome is that!
This week we would ask that you go through your scrap and create something, I would assume that using a new card base is OK.. as i did that! Looking forward to seeing what you create when you link up to the challenge blog.

The If the Shoe challenge took an inpromtu break over the last month but now they are back with a new challenge, a good theme for anyone wanting to finish up some incomplete projects or use up some scraps they find as they clean up their craft rooms for 2012... yes you know who you are... raise your hands if you are finding things you had forgotten about!
I completed the card below completely from the scrap box, my youngest daughter and I were playing with bleach colouring after being shown what it can do, via a link a friend sent to a stamp you tube clip (ill try and find the link). Unfortuantly the photo doesnt show the sentiment too well, but it says daughter.
Just a simple stamp, colour, crop card but sometimes those are the ones we need in a hurry!
What can you find in your scrap box to play with?? Pop on over to the If the Shoe challenge blog and link up your projects, the DT have uploaded some inspiration using their scraps.. which are a tad more inspired than mine...
